Patriots QB Tom Brady vs. Ravens defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano

Brady looked like a man on a mission against the Broncos and put together probably one of his most complete performances of the season. What was more impressive for Brady was that he found his groove in the postseason after being offensively stumped in in back-to-back playoff losses against the Ravens and Jets. With Gronkowski and Hernandez in Brady's arsenal, there will be even more weapons for the Ravens to cover than in the 2010 meeting. Pagano, the Ravens' first-year defensive coordinator, has to find a way to get to Brady and mix up coverages. If he stays in one too long, Brady will dissect it. Pagano has to win this chess match for the Ravens to earn a victory. Edge: Patriots
